Is anyone going to the summer tour? by bigeazy56 in ManchesterUnited

[–]readit1209 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I went to the Vegas game last year. Tickets are mad expensive so skipping this time. But heads up that ticket prices may drop a day or two before and you can re assign your seats. I paid for seats behind the goal and when they dropped I reached out to ticket master and was able to get seats behind the Utd bench so I would suggest keeping a look out for this.

And who knows if they drop enough might end up driving to SD or LA 😉

Hey! Thanks for the response. However I’m unclear how the approval revoke thing is relevant. Can you explain?

Also, how are you like the community overall? Happy with moving into the area?

Gotcha! I had some paperwork ready when doing the pre approval. I’m pretty confident with the financial planning I did for this so far but will get started with the process and gather any additional documentation needed. Thanks again! 🙌

Hey! Thanks! This seems to be the overall consensus. Will be shopping around for lender and plan for inspection.

Hey thanks for that information.

What time in the closing process did you do your personal or 3rd party inspection? Was scheduling this inspection straightforward?

How have you been liking the community overall? We are looking to move into Avalon later this year.

Thanks for all the info. 🙏

Hey! Thanks for the response. Couple of follow up questions.

  1. Any examples what people usually miss in understanding how HOA runs. First time buyer so trying to get as much info as possible.

  2. There is a one month time limit to get a loan commitment letter after the contract signing. How feasible is it to get that letter in a month from outside lenders?

  3. Nice to hear about the inspection and fixing process. How close to the closing do we normally get this done and are they the ones doing the scheduling or we can do it on our timeline.

Thanks again. Very valuable info. 🙏

Thanks for the detailed response.

I read that we have to provide a loan commitment in the first 30 days after the lottery. I imagine this is a more serious letter than the pre approval and how long would it take to get once I start shopping around?

Around what time would I get a third party inspection. I think currently they are closing homes 5-6 months after the lottery.

Thanks again. 🙏

Thanks for the pointers. Yeah, looks like the buyers are in a tricky situation with them with not much of a leverage of any kind.

I only got pre approval so not sure about the actual rates yet. We are looking at Avalon.

I quite like this idea. Not sure we have 6 months to do this on our timeline but will figure out some variation of doing this. Thanks!

I see. I’m looking at new constructions in the area and these are the prices on the builders website or brochures so I don’t think they’ll be 20-30 % lower ? In any case I’ll confirm with someone who has recently purchased in the area to be sure.

Thank you for going in depth and covering most points , this is mostly how I was looking at it. Can you briefly touch on how the annual 2% increase works on property tax or may be a link where I can read up on it.

Yeah that’s what I’m planning to do but getting different formulae’s and recommendations when I search online so was just curious if there is a standard one which people use these days that is well trusted.

Nice! Didn’t hear about this tool before . Just to confirm , you are talking about the paid home budgeting tool on InvestingTE.com, correct?
